Nodes of Cluster ESXi 5.5 with different MTU

Is a good idea for an ESXi cluster 5.5U2 to have nodes at different units MTU on their vSwitch?  No. VM or VMKernel interfaces are the MTU = 9000 value, only the single vSwitch (vSwitch0) is set to MTU = 9000

We are currently adding new nodes to an existing cluster 5.5U2 ESXi and set the vSwitch MTU = 9000 to allow frames extended on new nodes, but the existing nodes have MTU = 1500 (default).  The objective is long-term, all nodes vSwitch0 value MTU = 9000, but before this can happen there vMotion all the virtual machines on the existing nodes of ESXi in making the adjustment.

Yes, it's ok.

If you use the standard, turn on to do manually on all nodes and if you use distributed switch then you can substitute the single point through the command line or GUI.

  • ESXi 5.5/Workstation 8, how to make my computer prompted with different CPU

    Hello gurus,

    Let's start which is my goal. I need to create a virtual machine with different hardware (I have no problems with the HARD drive and RAM options). I need the CPU on the system invited to be Intel or SMA.

    My host system is with Intel CPU and Intel part it I don't find any problem. But there the prompt with the SMA is the trickiest part. Does anyone know any thing or any software that can make this possible?

    I also tried to build ESXi 5.5 as a guest on my workstation, but here I can't find how to (if possible at all) the CPU ADM.

    PS Comments OS it is win2k3/8/12

    Thank you!

    Hello Asen,

    You can abstract only that physically you have, so you can't emulate AMD CPUS on Intel CPU hardware.

    For guest with AMD CPU instructions you must use physical server with the desired provider in your case with AMD processor installed server.

    Kind regards

    is there another way to activate the CEV on my existing cluster and does not create a new?

    You can try to create a new cluster and select CVS it and move all your hosts to this cluster

    should I turn off my vm all?

    You will need to put the hosts in maintenance mode. So what you can do is put the host 1 in maintenance mode, virtual machines will move to host 2. Now move the new active EVC cluster host 1 and continue to do this until all of your hosts are in the cluster. You can try vMotion your VM 2 host to host 1 which is now in the new cluster, but it all depends on what your processor will hide VCA is activated... And if you cannot vMotion, virtual machine in a VCA not to an active evc cluster cluster, then Yes, you will have to turn off and restart your virtual machines in the new cluster

    I also have SRM ad site.do I need to activate the CEV on the cluster, I have here (a different Vcenter)

    No u don't.

  • Cluster with different host - resource pools hardware?

    Hello

    We have currently three generations of servers at base of AMD in our environment - with different CPU clock speeds.

    Guests are split into three groups and VMs are grouped based on clock speed.

    But frankly, it's a mess to administer.

    We envisage the creation of a single cluster and using pools of resources.

    But CPU resource pools take host speed of the CPU in return?

    - Or they just sure that VMs receive their share of CPU temps on loan-time partial?

    Best regards

    Martin

    Pools of resources sharing works only when there is some conflict of resources.

    -VMs in 'high' will appear on hosts with fast processors? - and get the most MHz?

    The actions are only priority... Then no.

    With a reservation... it depends on how much MHz offers...

    - Or they simply receive a high share of CPU time on a random host?

    By shars Yes...

    But remember the first sentence!

    If you have enough of free resources, all virtual machines are also (for actions).

  • Restore the virtual hard drive backup on a different node with different IP and host name.

    Hi guys,.
    I want to do the following.

    My reliable backup strategy is the virtual hard drive backup. The database is installed on a virtual particulay machine (node). Now, I do not take the backup of the DBF files or control files or files from archive.
    I rely on the virtual hard disk backup. It takes the entire Virtual Machine backup. Now, I wanted to restore this virtual hard drive backup to a different node with different IP and host name.
    But before I start the database, there are some things I need to do.
    As change address IP address and the hostname registered with the database installed and its services.

    Please guide me through the steps on how to perform the activity.

    Concerning
    Lam...
    SOA admin.

    I think that the whole operating system will be restored in a new virtual machine... I have it... The changes will have to be done in the file listener.ora (hostname or IPADDRESS and also PORT NO in case you want another port as the existing one). Once you have made the changes that you have to bounce the listener, I mean stop and start the listener... I don't think that any other changes are needed... Make sure that the same need for entries (from the listener) to be included in the TNSNAMES file. ORA file both client-side... The tns service is used to connect to the remote database server (from the demand side or whatever source you used to connect to the database server)... I just think that the change to do... Hope its clear... Please try...

  • 'For' loop with a different number of iterations. Second, the auto-indexation of the tables with different sizes is done. It can affect the performance of the Vi?

    Hello

    I have a loop 'for' which can take different number of iterations according to the number of measures that the user wants to do.

    Inside this loop, I'm auto-indexation four different 1 d arrays. This means that the size of the tables will be different in the different phases of the execution of the program (the size will equal the number of measures).

    My question is: the auto-indexation of the tables with different sizes will affect the performance of the program? I think it slows down my Vi...

    Thank you very much.

    My first thought is that the compiler to the LabVIEW actually removes the Matlab node because the outputs are not used.  Once you son upward, LabVIEW must then call Matlab and wait for it to run.  I know from experience, the call of Matlab to run the script is SLOW.  I also recommend to do the math in native LabVIEW.

  • Pass a vCenter Server ESXi to another with dvSwitch

    Hello

    I am actually preparing a migration of vCenter and have a few questions.

    I'm migrating a cluster esxi 5.5 to one vCenter to another. The esxi server are configured with a distributed VM networking switch...

    now, I would like to know if I can export the dvswitch configuration and import it on the new vcenter disconnect and reconnect esxi for the new vcenter Server?

    in it's kb article is also to bring all virtual machines to a standard switch: KB VMware: ESX/ESXi host with vDS passing a vCenter Server to another

    what I really need to move virtual machines first to a switch standard or is - this just for safety reasons? because I bring the configuration real the new vCenter dvswitch so it would stay the same dvswitch configuration?

    Perhaps it is - can anyone help me...

    Hello

    I just wanted to say that you MUST first migrate all the dvswitch to the standard switch exchanges!

    If you add the esxi with the distributed switch, the dvswitch disappeared and the virtual machines have no connection to network more

  • The upgrade to ESXi 4.1 with storage iSCSI software to ESXi 5.5

    I intend to upgrade ESXi 4.1 with which I have attached to ESXi 5.5 iSCSI software storage

    I've updated all my guests who were on the SAN storage with no problems.

    I would like to know that if it there's nothing I should take care before I update the host connected iSCSI to ESXi 5.5, as for the hosts with SAN attached storage I made to remove the cables of SAN before upgrading the host.

    Also, if all known problems, you will be informed during the upgrade to ESXi 4.1 to ESXi 5.5 with iSCSI Software storage, please let me know?

    If there is no different process to upgrade coz in ESXi 4.1 I do not see this link ports of iSCSI vmkernel ports software iSCSI but I know in ESXi5.5 we have to or I just launch a procedure of standard upgrade via the Update Manager and everything will be taken care?

    Thanks in advance

    With ESXi prior to version 5, linking ports had to be done via command line. However, if it has been configured correctly, you should be able to upgrade to ESXi 5.5 (assuming that the host has not been previously updated since version 3). BTW. the last time that I disconnected the host of storage for an upgrade has been with ESX 3.0.

  • Licenses that merge with different activation time

    Hello

    I want to merge two different activation time license. I found that there is a solution for this http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2006973

    But some question appears in this operation:

    1 time activation may differ by more than 30 days (a license has been purchased and activated in September and the other was purchased and active in June) type of licenses will be the same example - VMware vSphere Standard for 1 CPU with 1 year of support in version 5.5, how support for this looks?

    2. what type of license do need me for server with 2 processors with 8 cores and 192 GB of RAM, this license fits my needs? Is there a single license covering such a feature?

    On the HP site, I found only licnses for 1 CPU http://h30094.www3.hp.com/searchresults.aspx?store_id=11 & search_id = 67 & dept_id = 1328

    3. should I VMware vSphere Standard at least to connect to vCenter VMware?

    THX in advance for any replay :-)

    From vSphere 5.5 all basic and memory restrictions have been removed, and licenses are simply based on the number of processors physical Sockets (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2064117).

    What you must ensure is that the license key you want to assign has at least the capacity of the CPU. You can merge the license keys for the same version/edition even with different dates of SnS. However, this will not change SnS and end dates will always be displayed ion the MyVMware portal.

    vCenter Server is optional and licensed separately and is necessary if you want to manage a cluster host, or use additional features (for example, the cloning, live migration,...)

  • Is Microsoft Failover Cluster ESXi 4.1 Shared Disk of NFS data store, it supported?

    Is Microsoft Failover Cluster ESXi 4.1 Shared Disk of NFS data store, it supported?

    We have a request from MS Failover Cluster configuration on Windows 2008 R2 2 guests with a storage shared for a web application. However, there is no VMFS storage of data or the ability of the CF to presending RDM. So, I created the disks shared on a NFS datastore using option "Setup for Failover Clustering and Microsoft Cluster Service" and have added the cluster disk and tested successful failover.

    But the MS cluster validation control cancelled storage and I want to know if that configuration is not taken because of supported.

    A notice would be useful.

    We are also working on setting up a cluster of ESXi for iSCSI storage, which can be leveraed for this purpose.

    Shyam-

    Its not supported.

    4.1, your only options supported are:

    • CF storage with pRDMs
    • iSCSI storage with initiators guest.
  • 3-node MSSQL Cluster

    I noticed a limitation of 2 nodes for clusters with disks shared in this detailed KB http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1037959.

    I recommend usually MSCS in VMware but, I can understand Lab, Dev, Test scenerios where it might be useful. In this case our DBA to create a 3-node SQL Cluster for test scenerio upgrade that is used in the physical world.

    Does anyone know if the limit of 2 nodes described in the KB is a technical limitation where it isn't even a functional ability or whether it is more than one support position. Just trying to figure out if this could be done temporarily for the proposed trial?

    The limit of 2 nodes is more than one thing to support. It should work fine with even with other nodes. Particular in the case of iSCSI in guest I don't see no technical reason why it should not work.

    vSphere 5.1 will also support formally to 5 knots MSCS:

  • Implementation of storage fibre channel (ESXi 4.1) with jumbo frames

    I'm looking for 'official' instructions for the activation of the jumbo on a host ESXi 4.1 with storage fibre channel frames. I don't know if the instructions are different, or if anything else needs to be adjusted according to your storage space.

    I looked at the instructions from this page here and it seems simple enough. It also seems that you can keep your groups of existing ports rather than having to delete and then recreate. If these good enough instructions apply it for the side host?

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & docType = kc & externalId = 1003712 & sliceId = 1 & docTypeID = DT_KB_1_1 & dialogID = 322680138 & StateID = 1% 200% 20322684038

    I saw this page for iSCSI storage so that made me think if the procedure differs according to the storage.

    What is the reason for having to recreate them?

    If you are in 4.1 that you don't need to recreate anything, just activate via the CLI.

    And you can enable frames on a standard port group or is it just for VMkernel port groups?

    You can turn on the VM and vmkernel exchanges. Together you must also make the "virtual cards", i.e.: on the Vmkernel virtual network cards and cards of virtual network in the guest operating systems. On the Windows 2003 server, I think you have to use VMXNET3, but on Windows 2008 the e1000 should support frames too.

    As has been noted before just make sure that any layer two devices in the path is configured to allow the large frames. You can use this to confirm both Vmkernel and invited: http://rickardnobel.se/archives/992
